A printer is a device that can transfer images and texts from a computer to paper. They are found in offices, schools, internet cafes and other places where printing is a necessity.
They are categorized into many different types as per their printing features and raw materials they use. Some of them are character, line and inkjet printers.
Besides printing, they can also do some other tasks like scanning, copying, etc. They are mainly used in businesses and schools to make the process of document creation more efficient.
Speed: It is important for a user to choose a printer with a fast printing speed. Inexpensive printers may print only about 3 to 6 sheets of paper per minute, but faster speeds are an option with more sophisticated, expensive printers.
Memory: Most printers come with 2 to 16 megabytes of memory that can be expanded by the user. A user should not be afraid of using more than the minimum amount of memory as it will help them to print out large images faster.
Drivers:
There are many different types of drivers that work with a printer. Some drivers are install-able on the user’s computer and others are present in the printer firmware and made available through a networking protocol (e.g. IPP).
The most common type of printer interface is the parallel Centronics interface with a 36-pin plug; other types include serial interfaces such as USB or FireWire; some printers are integrated with scanners and fax machines.
